I can't even begin to describe the nightmare that is this university. Go here if you want to waste…read moreyour time, money and energy. I don't think there is one damn person in any one office that knows how to do their own job. They lost my transcript not once, twice, three times but FIVE TIMES I had to have it re-sent to them because they "didn't receive it" the first three times and then only could find part of it the fourth, which resulted in them signing me up for a class I didn't need only to find out two weeks after the semester started, and having to switch into the correct class late. That's not the only fax they've lost of mine resulting in me having to jump through hoop after hoop just to do something that should've taken hours, not days, and screwing up my entire schedule. I stayed maybe one or two nights in one of their dorms, hated it so much and asked to withdraw from student housing and they still charged me over 2 grand. The campus security is some of the rudest and most useless people I've ever encountered. They issue parking tickets every chance they can get, and one time I left an expired parking pass on my car and some bitch called me saying if I didn't take it off they were going to arrest me?? I called them to walk me back to my dorm one night because there are so many rapes on campus and they took 35 minutes to get to me. And one time I crashed my bike and was crying in class so they had the police called on me and the counseling office had the police FORCE ME against my will onto an ambulance and said I couldn't refuse treatment which made me miss both my classes that day and instead they took all my belongings except my underwear and had me sit in the hospital for NINE hours before a social worker walked in and said I could leave. This place is literally hell. Go somewhere else.

If you plan on going here, take some time to consider how much you will invest going here. If you believe you could stomach a couple grand more here are a few schools that will actually prepare you for the games industry. http://www.scad.edu/ http://www.ringling.edu/Game-Art http://www.colum.edu/academics/media-arts/interactive-arts-and-media/ \/ Expensive but worth the cost \/ https://www.gnomon.edu/ https://www.digipen.edu/ Likely if you go to ferris, here is your experience in waiting. First few semesters are hopeful but slow, prodding through learning 3dsmax, photoshop, C#, and baby level drawling. Then you will likely hit a road block in animation 3, this class is easy but you will get annoyed with the insane work load difference between your other classes. After this you will consider suicide via Jake classes, he will continually prove to you that you have made the wrong choice. Pretty much a large man child who repeatedly will get on his "soapbox" about what ever fucked up shit he wants to subject the class to. Then you reach where i have, taking vehicle class. Your task is to play guinea pig for smiths new lesson plan, and boy will it be shit and poorly thought out. After this you have to look forward to "Crapstone" where you likely will lose a lot of sanity over the fact that even though you've been here 4 years there is no way you can accommodate these perfection seeking idiots.Take a hard long look instructors, if the students are creating poor final products its because: 1. There is no student unity, 2. The class is one measly semester, 3. Students capstones get gutted in favor of the twisted ideas of you fools.

I'm sure you have read over some of this and you have pointed out the grammatical errors, trust me just hold on were almost done here. I am not attacking you, and before you cry that i am please for once take ownership over the fact that you cant take critque. Please re-evaluate your thinking and your ego! / 10 And that concludes this review, like a good burger this review is hard to swallow, i hope you take to review all my points and if i could meet you personally i would give you job for simply sitting through this "Soap Box". I have spent a lot here at this college and trust me my voice is not heard, so im left to warn the future of the roadblocks they will face. Best of luck, Mitch

Having to chase down a school to become a student is insane. As a fully funded military person I…read morewill find a school that actually supports military. Do not recommend this school to my military friends or veterans unless you like calling multiple times and having to leave multiple voicemails, you having to constantly reach out and still get no answers, like having a school that doesn't believe in communication.
